The authors elaborate a new method of \(G^{k,l}\)-constrained multi-degree reducing Bézier curves with respect to the least squares norm. This method has better complexity than the existing ones. First of all, the specific continuity conditions are related with the control points. A model of the multi-degree reduction with prescribed boundary control points is described. The optimum values of the parameters are obtained by minimizing the least squares error function, discussing two possibilities: an optimization method (either the interactive active-set method or a sequential quadratic programming method) and solving a system of linear equations. The implementation of the described algorithm is accompanied by practical examples and compared with existing techniques.
